Terminology

I avoid the term Spiritual, as much as possible, because it has been hijacked by the humanists and pagans, as a substitute for the Spirit. This makes description of certain spheres in my life difficult: “emotional” is an equally wimpified term, which is used essentially to mean touchy-feely or high-strung, disallowing what were once called the manly virtues. To make a point where an older meaning of emotional or spiritual might suffice, I will henceforth use Emotional with an initial capital. Please do not confuse it with anything you might have seen on Oprah.
